Complete the Parent Survey: Your voice matters
Research shows students reach higher levels of achievement when parents are actively
involved in their children’s education. As a parent, family member, or guardian of a
student with a disability, you know firsthand what is working and what is not. Therefore,
each year, the Office of Exceptional Children (OEC) gathers feedback from families
through the survey to improve services.
Please complete the 2024-2025 Exceptional Children Parent Survey to share your views
on how your school involves you in your child’s education. The survey is available
through all Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) and open to all parents in the state. The
survey is available to complete and will accept responses until June 30, 2025. If you have
more than one child with a disability receiving services, you may complete the survey for
each child. The survey is open to parents with children from preschool through high
school.
Completing the survey is voluntary. You will not be asked to provide your name or other
personally identifiable information. The information is confidential and will not be
shared with anyone. The information from all families will be compiled to create a report
about your school system, the state, the efforts to involve families in their children’s
education, and the impact of that involvement on educational results for students with
disabilities. The report is shared with LEAs so they can make improvements. We hope
you will participate.
